Re: Flight Deck Illumination
I think you will need to update your P3D. The latest RealLight uses API calls found only in P3D v4.4 and up.

Re: Flight Deck Illumination
Hi,
Oh------ you know I reported a Reallite initialisation error a few days ago, i looked for the 0.bmp files but found none, i have two other MILVIZ A/C and lights in flight deck work fine.
Would finding them 0.bmp files fix the issue?

Re: Flight Deck Illumination
Nope. A 0.bmp isn't a problem. A mix of numeric and non numeric file names is.

Re: Flight Deck Illumination
Long outdated. You will find the RealLight texture folders in your P3D directory\SimObjects\Airplanes\MV Boeing 737-200\RealLight\textures folder.

Re: Flight Deck Illumination
It will solve the error you are getting, but to get the lights actually working you should upgrade your P3D to v4.5

Re: Flight Deck Illumination
You don't need to. You can backup your control configurations by exporting them from the controls menu, where you can also import them back, then uninstall the client and content (won't touch your addons) and scenery (also won't touch your addons) one at a time from Windows Control Panel->Programs and Features. Then reinstall and everything will remain as it was. LM have deliberately designed P3D to do this since v4.0

Re: Flight Deck Illumination
Well I took your advice and upgraded to P3D v 4.5
It has made no difference no illumination in the cockpit- what now?

Re: Flight Deck Illumination
Do you have any thumbs.db files in your RealLight textures folder? If so, please delete them.
